Tailwind CSS Object Position

Last Updated : 23 Jul, 2025

The Tailwind CSS Object Position class accepts more than one value. All the properties are covered as in class form. It is the alternative to the CSS object-position property. This class is used to specify, how an image or video element is positioned with x/y coordinates within its content box. It also controls the replacement of the element's content positioning within its container.
